EDC... necklace?

Thread Tools

Just sitting in front of the computer at 1:40am thinking about EDC when I had a little idea... What about getting a necklace and putting a little keychain flashlight and multitool on there?

I'm thinking something like A Fenix E05 and a Leatherman PS4. Something simple, which means I'll always have some gear on me.

Has anyone got any recommendations on a good place to get necklaces? I'm thinking specifically maybe the type used for neck-knives? I know very little about those sort of affairs so while I'm doing my own research I thought it may be a good idea to consult the brains trust.

Will be interesting to see what the lovely lady thinks when I start wearing this bad boy :laugh: :lolhammer:

Put your Leatherman PS4 onto paracord. I put my Leatherman Squirt PS4 onto paracord for wearing around my neck. It's small and light enough that it feels comfortable. Its edges are smooth and rounded so there's no irritation wearing it under my Tshirt. I made a two slip knots on the paracord ends so I can adjust the length as I like... apparently its called a fisherman's knot.

Seconding the paracord recommendation. Actually, even if you go with bead chain, I'd recommend putting it inside the paracord sheath. Of course, the bead chain might look cooler. I don't know. But the nylon is definitely more comfortable.

I've been carrying an assortment of EDC items on a necklace for several years now. Ti is the perfect material due to weight and corrosion issues. Initally cost was more of an issue so I had SS version of many items which functioned well but did start showing wear before too long. Once I switched over to Ti, everything keeps looking almost like new. Here's where I got the Ti necklace.

What i find interesting about the P series is that it runs on hardware that is 1/10 the computing power of the iphone and android phones sold today, but delivered as much in terms of features (tho perhaps crudely depending on who on asks). Yet as this was not done by a US company, the US tech press have largely ignored it contribution to the smartphone world.
